Lightbox videos not correctly fullscreen on Android

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › Lightbox videos not correctly fullscreen on Android

  • Matt C. 7 years, 4 months ago

    Hey Guys,

    We’re having an issue with Fullscreen videos on Android devices.

    It appears this only exists when a video is setup to play in a lightbox, the video refuses to expand to fullscreen.

    As you can see in the screenshots I attached the background continues to be intractable and the header cuts through the top of the video.

    We’ve attempted to adjust the settings to “Use native fullscreen on mobile” and to “Force fullscreen on mobile” but the videos continue to display like the attached images.

    Thanks!

    Hello Matt,

    since the new lightbox library which FV Player users (fancyBox) has a fullscreen mode we decided to use that if FV Player is in lightbox. That way you can circle through multiple videos or images without having to leave the fullscreen mode of video.

    As you are a Pro user I checked a bit deeper into the issue. Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.

    That should help with your issue.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Awesome thanks so much Martin!

    When I replaced the folder with the new version those videos began displaying perfectly.

    Thanks for the quick fix!
